"Osamu you said you'd tell me, it's been like 2 months..." Ariana whined. It was lunch time and they were both sat outside with Suna on the outdoor bench.

Ariana never gave up , she asked him every day to tell her. She was worried about Atsumu. Her feelings for him grew stronger every day. Volleyball ended up taking most of his time so she barely saw him outside of school, but when she did she tried her best to act normal around him. There was no point in avoiding someone she barely saw...

"Ari , this shouldn't really be coming from me. Tsumu should be the one telling you this. It's not my story to tell.... But since your so fucking annoying-
I guess I can tell you a little bit, but you just swear that you didn't hear it from me okay." Osamu said sternly to Ariana. He looked at Suna , who then got the hint and walked over to Kosaku's table and sat with the other first years on the volleyball team.

"Okay now tell me Samu-" Ariana command. Her arms were crossed and her face wore a serious expression. She wasn't here to play.

"Ari, you see the thing is... Well you know how Atsumu is. He can be quite selfish and condescending at times... He hates listening and we all know he can lie now and again." Osamu began. Ariana nodded her head in agreement before looking back up at him.

"Back in junior high , he was having some problems with the guys on the team. They would talk shit about him behind his back and would isolate him from activities outside of the club. It happened quite regularly in fact , there were times when I was invited to parties and ended up going without Tsumu. He used to always insist that he wouldn't want to go to some stupid team mates party and I believed him. Later on down the line I found out that he wasn't invited, and Atsumu didn't even know. I obviously kept this from him because I didn't want to hurt him even more but I just feel guilty that I didn't recognise their hostility towards him sooner. Then again Atsumu wasn't making it any better for himself , he used to blow up every time they didn't meet his expectations.  Atsumu didn't care about being hated, 'anyone who couldn't hit his sets was a scrub and just plain trash at volleyball . People who are trash shouldn't be on the court and trash can easily be replaced'. Well that's what he claimed anyways.

Oh yeah , I was also the official setter for my junior high but Atsumu ended up over taking me. His drive for hunger and success is impeccable but it ruins him sometimes. He pushes himself so hard and forgets that not everyone is as talented as he is."

Ariana looked at Osamu , his head bowed clearly feeling guilty. "Hey Samu , this isn't your fault at all. This is on Tsumu and only Tsumu can change it." She began, "I'm sorry I wasn't there for you guys when it happened. I might have been able to help..."

"Mmm , maybe. I know the situation isn't as big as you thought it was but it's clearly affected my brother so I just thought you deserved to know. Your one of our best friends Ari." Osamu stated weekly smiling at his friend.

"I'm glad you told me bestie." Ariana giggled before she pulled out her phone to check the notification she just received.

"Ahh damn, Aran wants me to stay back so we can walk home together after practice." Ariana moaned. "Guess I'll see you tonight Samu!" she laughed before fist bumping him and gathering her stuff together.

"Bye Ari, see you." Osamu called as he left the table jogging up to Suna so they could go to their next lesson.

Ariana had just finished up with her drama club rehearsals , and was walking towards the gym to find her brother. Once she got there , she saw Atsumu. He was practicing his serve.

She was captivated , he was so good

He did it once , twice , three times and it was amazing. He then stopped and put his arm in the air, balled his hands into a fist and screamed SILENCE before  doing a killer serve.

Ariana then walked into the room and burst out laughing , like how could anyone take him seriously when he pulls that shit! She thought.

Atsumu then turned around to look at Ariana , his eyebrows furrowed up slightly and the corners of his mouth turned into a smirk. He let out a slight chuckle before charging towards Ariana. He was like a bull who had just saw red.  She yelped for help in between her laughs and screams but he caught up to her in no time. Pinning her against the gym door

"What are you doing here , Ari , everyone's left. Also don't laugh at my fucking serves." He stated this dominantly, looking Ariana up and down.

"Aran's left?" Ariana asked, "fuck he asked me to wait for him. Also Tsumu, I do what I want , whenever the fuck I want."

"Yeah," he replied "He took the first year manager home , what was her name again Nakano? It was dark out and he didn't want her to get hurt."

"Yeah but he's fine with letting his sister walk home by herself ,what a fucking prick." She huffed. "Oh well Tsumu guess your walking me home, get changed we're leaving." Ariana giggled lightly punching him in the arm repeatedly.

"I guess I am Ari," he smirked. "Just give me a second to change yeah?" He smiled at her before running off to the changing rooms.

Leaving Ariana with her own thoughts in the gym.

I can't believe this. What the hell. Oh my God. I am alone with Tsumu like alone, alone. As in no one is going to disturb us alone. I don't know how to react or feel I'm just so happy! What the hell.

Ariana giggled she was like a love struck puppy.

"Oi!" She heard a voice shout , she quickly turned around and saw Atsumu. Standing there with both of their bags in his hands. "What kind of gentleman would I be if I made you carry your bag?" He chuckled. They started walking.

"Ay, I never knew you were a gentleman Tsumu. When did you start acting all chivalrous?" Ariana giggled linking her arm with his. "I've missed you Tsumu , you know that right ? I barely get to see you." She said whilst looking into his almond eyes.

"I've missed you too Ari." He said smiling before stopping in the middle of the street and pulling her into his warm embrace.

Ariana smiled , she had never been so happy. Even though she had a mini (large)  crush on Atsumu , she appreciated and valued their friendship. Putting it above everything. They both walked down the street , Atsumu being the man he is standing on the side closest to the road.

"We should do this again. It could be our thing? You get me , walking home together." Ariana looked at Atsumu willingly , praying he'd say yes. She was desperate to spend more time alone with him.

"Why not , I've missed spending alone time with you." He chuckled lightly punching her in the arm.

"Hey!" She giggled whilst attempting to punchy him back , Atsumu dodged and ran ahead. Ariana chased him , their shrieks and laughs filling up the streets and dark evening skies.

"I'll walk you to your door , Ariana." Atsumu said to the dark haired girl. It was tied in a sleek slicked back bun , topped off with her edges layed and nude jumbo clips on each side.

"Thanks Tsumu," she replied to him. Giving him a dazzling smile and showing off her pearly whites.

"You should be a model Ari, your have the looks and figure for it." Atsumu revealed. Ariana looked at him shocked , in a good way , that he even said it.

"Thanks bro!" she laughed. "I'm going to be a model when I grow up Tsumu ," she said looking up at him. "Well I know your just going to make it. I can see your potential from a mile away... We're at your house now Ari , I guess I'll see you tomorrow." Atsumu hurriedly spoke, giving Ariana a quick wave before dashing over to his house a few roads away.

He was flustered.
